This is a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by the Los Angeles County Department of Homeless Services and Housing (HSH) on behalf of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. The RFQ seeks Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from developers interested in joining a qualified developer bench for the County's Land Bank Pilot Program. The program aims to acquire vacant and underutilized properties throughout Los Angeles County to facilitate affordable housing development, with a target of approximately five total Land Bank Sites, including at least one in each Supervisorial District. Selected developers will be eligible to compete for opportunities to develop individual sites as they become available through subsequent separate solicitation processes. The initial SOQ submission deadline is September 1, 2026 at 11:00 a.m., with the RFQ remaining open on a rolling basis thereafter to accept submissions until the County's needs are met. This RFQ does not solicit proposals for any specific site but rather establishes the pool of qualified developers from which the County will draw for future site development opportunities.

The RFQ targets developers with demonstrated experience designing, building, financing, operating, managing, and maintaining affordable housing developments. No specific pricing information, contract award dates, or contract term details are provided in the RFQ summary. Funding for individual site development opportunities will be determined through subsequent solicitation processes as individual Land Bank Sites become available.
